Mind and Body Works

Hands Free Massage uses elbows and forearms to give a deep, effective massage and also utilises deep stretches and soothing strokes to prepare the muscles for this work. These techniques can be used as a stand-alone treatment, but more often they are incorporated into Swedish Massage to loosen off stubborn areas of deep seated tension in large muscle areas.

What to expect: A full consultation is taken before the treatment asking questions about health and lifestyle so that it can be understood what pressure individuals are putting on their systems and what help they are giving it, if any. A special blend of essential oils will be agreed with you to alleviate symptoms on the day and then the massage will begin. All parts not being massage will be covered by towels and throughout the massage you will be asked for feed-back with regard to depth of pressure.

How it can help: This treatment is especially helpful for chronically tense and painful muscles such as stiff necks, lower back tightness and sore shoulders which all limit mobility. Hands Free massage works by loosening off tension and increasing the circulation, thereby restoring normal movement to these areas. It is a wonderfully refreshing massage which helps restore your flexibility and increases your energy.
